Solid Parisian-Style Brunch in West Green
Forks & Green has carved out a nice niche in West Green as a reliable spot for brunch lovers. The menu leans heavily into Parisian brasserie classics - think perfectly poached eggs, fluffy omelettes, and hearty breakfast plates with locally sourced ingredients. Their Mediterranean breakfast with halloumi, sujuk sausage, and hummus is a standout if you're looking for something beyond the standard English fry-up.
The space itself is bright and welcoming, with outdoor seating that overlooks Dowhills Park - perfect on sunny mornings. Service is friendly and the place is genuinely dog-friendly, which is a plus for locals. It's not going to blow you away with innovation, but the food is consistently good and the atmosphere is relaxed. If you're in Haringey and need a solid brunch spot without the trek to central London, this is worth the trip.
